I agree with Coug's preference for electronic controllers. Night and day difference once you get a decently heavy trailer. Also really nice to turn it down when the trailer is empty so you don't lock up the brakes every time you stop. Once heavy you can crank it to the right setting for the load.
Very nice write up. I have both the 10K hitch you have and the xm381. Both have worked great for over a year. I mounted my xm381 to the underside of the bed using carriage bolts. The heads are covered by a removable bedliner. I haven't yet done the brake controller but its on my to-do list...
